[When Jack appears on camera, he looks about as haggard as mostly everyone is feeling on board the Tranquility right now. Where he might normally be tossing around flirtatious comments and easy smiles, at the moment Jack Harkness is all business. He has an announcement to make, and an important one.]
Hey. Captain Jack Harkness here. Listen up, Tranquility, because I’ve got an announcement to make, and I really only want to say this once.
Remember that machine we found a few days ago? It’s a nanotech extraction machine. I won’t go into the science behind it but the gist of it is that the presence of a second form of nanotechnology, separate from that native to the ship, is what’s behind these mutations, this sickness, the whole lot of it. And this machine [Jack runs a hand across it] can scan, identify the different types of nanites, and remove the foreign one. Once the foreign nanite is removed, the ship’s nanite and our medbay team here should be able to get you back to normal. But that’s where we’re gonna need your cooperation.
[Somewhere in the background, an exhausted but insistent voice pipes up:] Tell ‘em not to be assholes about it.
[Jack lets out a bark of a laugh, before sobering.] The medical team here is already handling the passengers here in the medbay with the most need. From there, we’re gonna form a queue. Yes, a queue. And no, it doesn’t matter where you are in line, everyone will get treated before the jump, so if we see you pushing, trying to cut, or creating a hassle for any of us up here, we will throw you to the back of the line. No exceptions. Everyone here is sick, everyone wants treatment. We’ll get to you, we promise. Until then, head down to the medbay, start lining up, and be patient. [He looks over his shoulder in the direction of the other voice.] Good?
[There’s a pause, but then the other speaker stands up into view. Here’s the sweat-sheen and half-translucent face of Raven Reyes as she steps up to lean into the frame. Her voice is tired, but their success so far has her in at least a decent mood, so she tries to sound patient:]
You probably don’t need me to tell you this, but I’m saying it anyway: This isn’t ‘you break it, you buy it’. This is ‘you break it, we all die and whoever shows up next Jump gets to clean the mysterious blood-slick off half the walls and floors’. So don’t do anything stupid, okay? [She doesn’t even know what kind of ‘anything stupid’ she’s warning off, but with this many people, someone’s always going to have a bad idea and an itch to see it through.]
((ooc note: anyone interested in playing out the extraction/healing from extraction should tag in here, in the new log created for the organization of exactly that!!))
